This is because, as I mentioned re your previous question, openssl normally uses errorcodes with bitfields of 8,12,12, but Winsock errors are too large to fit in 12 bits. So ignore this text. The actual error 0x274d=ECONNREFUSED on most systems means no (server) process is listening on the requested port. But AIUI Linux has a lot of firewall logic configurable in the IP stack beyond the standard (Berkley-style) processing, and there may be (I don't know) firewall features that also cause ECONNREFUSED. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
